Ma'am, The World Is Waiting For Your Divorce

Chapter 146

Davis hesitated for a moment but still ended up speaking truthfully, “The company has decided to have you and Yuni attend the competition together. You have any thoughts about this?” This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Jocelyn pursed her lips. Did Davis think that she had quite an opinion about Yuni? She felt a little helpless internally. “Since it’s the company’s decision, I have nothing to say about it!”

Davis could tell that there was still something weighing on Jocelyn. Since Jocelyn was unwilling to voice them, however, he did not pry. Jocelyn left Davis’s office. She had forgotten about meeting Skyler because of that matter with Davis and Yuni.

During lunch, Jocelyn kept staring at Lexie. She wanted to say something but kept stalling. Lexie could not stand it any longer and her cold little face was taut. “Jocelyn, what is it you want to say? Don’t keep staring at me. I can’t even eat!” Jocelyn pursed her lips. “Lexie, I mentioned before that you should find a time to explain your intentions to Davis. Have you thought about it?”

Lexie was stunned for about two seconds. “I’m still not ready yet!”

Jocelyn was exasperated. Lexie had always been indifferent to everything apart from Davis. Her feelings had persisted for many years but she was hesitant to confess.

Jocelyn was a little angry. “Love is something that needs to be said out loud. If you don’t say it, how would the other know what you want? You would be the spare forever, do you understand?”

Lexie looked at Jocelyn with some surprise. “Jocelyn, what’s gotten into you? Why are you so angry?”

Jocelyn looked at Lexie angrily. “I just find it unfair for you! You didn’t dare give him his breakfast personally and you don’t dare confess to him. You just watch over him silently, he can’t possibly read your mind!”

Lexie was a little helpless. “It’s not that I don’t want to confess, but our relationship has lasted too long and I’m too afraid that he might not like me and am too afraid of being rejected, you know? No one can understand how he weighs in my heart!”

Lexie adjusted her breathing, feeling somewhat sad. “What can I do to continue protecting him if he doesn’t like me? Moreover, if he finds out that I like him, but doesn’t like me, my love will stress him out. I have a hunch that he may avoid me! I will only be sadder then!” Jocelyn frowned fiercely, her expression complicated. “Do you refuse to face him because you’re afraid of failure? What if he likes you?”

Lexie looked at her. “Well, Jocelyn, do you think he likes me?”

Jocelyn pursed her lips and said nothing. Lexie’s expression was anxious. “Jocelyn, I look cold and impersonal, and you seem much easier to get close to than I am when in fact, this is not the case. I am not as strong as you. My indifference is just a mask to protect myself!

“Just like back then when you learned that Walter had a fiancé, you did not hesitate to ask Howard to refuse him and completely cut off your relationship with him, but I can’t. I can’t let Davis go. I’m afraid of losing him, I’m afraid he would look at me differently, and I’m even more afraid that he will hide from me!”

Jocelyn shut her eyes reluctantly. “Forget it, I won’t push you anymore, but I must tell you one thing. Davis thinks Yuni was the one who gave him that daily breakfast!”

Lexie’s expression finally changed.

Jocelyn could not hold back, but continued, “Not to mention, I heard that they made an appointment to go out for breakfast together. If you want to dispel Yuni’s lies, you can continue to send them. You would dispel her lies without attacking that way!

“However, I don’t think Yuni is that easy to deal with. She’ll either throw away your breakfast while Davis is not paying attention or even if Davis knows the truth, she would just make small lies to fool him! She’s very emotionally intelligent!”

Lexie’s clear eyes were tinged with sadness.

She said, “Well, since he already thinks that someone else gave him that breakfast, I won’t give him anymore in the future!”

Jocelyn looked at her for a while but did not continue to persuade her in the end.

She had already guessed Lexie’s decision, had she not?

Everyone’s decisions were different when it came to facing their feelings. She just needed to respect Lexie, just as Lexie had respected all her choices. That was enough!

She reached out and pinched Lexie’s fingers. “Let’s go back to work after we’re done eating. If anything happens, tell me at any time. Don’t carry it around by yourself!”

That afternoon after heading to work, Jocelyn drew up a design draft and took the initiative to look for Skyler on the top floor.

Jocelyn had known Skyler for a while now. He seemed ruthless but in reality, he was just overbearing and arrogant. He used indifference to hide the fact that he was soft behind his tough words. His face was cold but his heart was warm.

In other words, he was just stubborn. When Jocelyn knocked on the door, she thought of her description of Skyler’s image and could not help the smile on her lips. In the end, she realized that the door had not been locked the moment she laid her hand on it. The door was pushed open from the force of her knocking.

When the door opened, a man with his back to her was kneeling in Skyler’s office. Skyler sat

behind his desk and leaned back in his office chair with a look of laziness and indifference.
